Description
Sunnyside is a pair of cottages, now functioning as a single residence, built in the mid-19th century. The cottages feature stone walls with ashlar quoins and are rendered. They have a slate roof with gable ends and a rebuilt 20th-century brick chimney at the center ridge. The building is two storeys high and has two windows, which are 2-light cast-iron casements with glazing bars. These windows have stone mullions at the center and low cills, all of which are intact from the 19th century. There are porches on the left and right of the center, each with pitched slate roofs and pointed-arch entrances, although these have been partly filled in. The right porch has a 19th-century plank door, while the left has a door that was renewed in the 20th century. At the rear of each cottage, there is a small outhouse extension located under the main rear pitch of the roof.
